Who Is the Holy Spirit?

summary

In John 16:7–15, Jesus teaches that the Holy Spirit is the Spirit of Truth who continues his work in the world and in the church. He convicts the world of sin, righteousness, and judgment, exposing unbelief and calling people to repentance; he guides believers into all truth by applying and unfolding the teaching of Jesus; and he glorifies Christ by making his person and work known. The Spirit does not compete with Jesus or Scripture but works in harmony with them, forming disciples through conviction, proclamation, and worship so that the truth of Christ shapes both belief and life.
